Ok the title of the post should read Creminelli, Whole foods and Chipotle. What a funny combination, the premier artisan meat company in America (based in Salt Lake city), the trendiest supermarket and a great fast(ish) food chain. They have been brought together in an effort to bring us non GMO pork products. That is it though, buy from the three of them or don't get any ( as I understand it). http://fabriziozangrilli.blogspot.com/2015/06/creminelli-non-gmo-pork-option-in.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Fabrizio Zangrilli)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23490927.post-6545028256044419082Wed, 03 Jun 2015 18:07:00 +00002015-06-03T11:07:25.961-07:00Mt. Robson's Grand Adventurers....Cheesmond and Dick
Cheesmond/Dick Mt Robson’s Emperor Face
My obsession with the Emperor Face is sort of at it’s peak, having just returned from a walk about to see it for the first time (with the hopes of climbing a route with Jon Jugenheimer). I am consumed with reading as much as possible and studying photos. Sidelined from much greater range action lately, I am amazed by the scale, angle, overall aesthetic http://fabriziozangrilli.blogspot.com/2015/06/mt-robsons-grand-adventurerscheesmond.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Fabrizio Zangrilli)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23490927.post-4568050639458191172Wed, 27 May 2015 16:50:00 +00002015-05-27T09:51:08.280-07:00Canadian Rockies
Me, sad to see Wild Thing melting out and things falling down it.
The Canadian Rockies are the greatest alpine climbing range. Simple. No altitude issues, ease of access (even if sometimes you have to wade through deep snow for 20km) and Canmore, Banff and Jasper as drinking holes close by; I am not sure it gets any better. The main reason though, the Rockies win for best alpine climbing http://fabriziozangrilli.blogspot.com/2015/05/me-sad-to-see-wild-thing-melting-out.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Fabrizio Zangrilli)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23490927.post-5573409702784700968Fri, 15 May 2015 21:58:00 +00002015-05-15T14:58:18.784-07:00The Journey
My home woddie
“The journey is the destination” and all the other trite
sayings about being in the moment, forcing us to be excited about the process
of training, about the pain and effort of repeated movement, of practice making
perfect movement and eventual execution of routes has always bothered me. Bothered me
because I always felt it somehow belittled the need to have a huge end goal.

Me, Hallett's Chimney, a while ago, thanks Tom for the photo!
Spring always brings a bit of hope for me.
Long, warmer days generate a shift in desire from cold snow floating and long ski tours, to slow, methodic and often panic filled moments of alpine climbing.
Such a strange thing, let's be honest; powder skiing is the best fun you can have in the mountains. Hands down the best.

Packing has become my least favorite thing in the world to do. I seem to leave it until the last minute every trip these days. Too many things to choose from probably making it way too difficult!

This spring after guiding I waited around for reasonable conditions to attempt to solo the North Face of Cholatse 6440 Meters in the Khumbu Valley of Nepal. Conditions never came, I reached the "1/3rd" snow band - the same height Steck/Wilkinson reached a week prior to my attempt. I will be back.

Managed to find some very fun mixed climbing near Cholatse. I am back in Namche for a day for a break and then back at it. Let's hope the snow cycle stops and allows for some stuff to get done!
